The Illinois-based actor was received by Consul General Gina Jamoralin, Consul Ryan Gener and Cultural Officer Noly Dulay. Mr. Bianco shared with Consul General Jamoralin how the critically-acclaimed movie was conceived, written and directed with the view to share to the Filipino people and to the world the generosity and humanity of former President Manuel L. Quezon towards the Jewish people at the most difficult period in Jewish history. Apart from Col. Eisenhower who later became the 34th president of the United States ( 1953-1961), another American who was featured in the movie is the American diplomat Paul V. McNutt, who served as US High Commissioner to the Philippines (1945-1946), then later became the first US Ambassador to the Philippines from 1946-1947 immediately after the Philippines gained its independence on July 4, 1946. Ambassador McNutt, born in Franklin, Indiana, served as the 34th Governor of Indiana from 1933 to 1937. Filipino actor, Raymond Bagatsing played the role of President Quezon while Rachel Alejandro, a Filipina, played Mrs. Aurora Quezon in the movie which earned several international awards from various international film festivals worldwide. “Quezon’s Game” is now on an extended run at Century 16 Deer Park, Illinois until February 26.

We examine this hypothesis by focusing on the textile and apparel industries in Southeast Asian countries, especially the Philippines, Malaysia, and Thailand. We found that there are two different kinds of value chains in these industries. In one, the lead firms are engaged in chemical fiber production, and, in the other, the lead firms are engaged in fast fashion retailing. The former is a producer-driven chain and the latter is a buyer-driven chain. In Southeast Asian countries today, we find these two different chains. Japanese chemical fiber producers during the 1960s and 1970s represented the former case, and today this type is found among Indian chemical fiber producers such as Reliance Industries, the Indorama group, and the Aditya Birla group.

  • Part 1:Mall Culture and Brand Awareness Among the Socioeconomic Classes in Metro Manila
    Public-Interest Incorporated foundation Research Institute for High-Life Japan-Asia Collaborative Research Project Study report "The New Trends in Asian Urban Lifestyle" "The New Trends in Urban Lifestyle in Manila” (serial in 4 parts) Part 1:Mall culture and brand awareness among the socioeconomic classes in Metro Manila Principal Author: Carlos Luis L. Santos Japanese Language lecturer, Ateneo de Manila University Research field: Comparative Culture of Japan and the Philippines (see reference page for details) Foreword The Republic of the Philippines has a population of around 100 million. Its citizens enjoy a unique lifestyle influenced by a mixture of Asian, Spanish, and American culture. Filipinos also currently view Japan in a positive light. Geographically, it is surrounded by the South China, Celebes, and Philippine seas, and has a land area of around 300,000 square kilometres (around 80% of Japan’s land area). It is an archipelago of more than 7000 islands. Manila, in the National Capital Region of the Philippines, has favourable access conditions as one of the major cities in Asia. Moreover, with over 20 million inhabitants, it is also one of the world’s most populous cities. Nominal GDP in 2012 reached up to 250 billion dollars, an impressive increase of 6.6% compared to the rest of Asia. With the growth of the middle class population, and continuous urban development, Metro Manila is transforming into a comfortable and globalized metropolis. However, the Philippines is also faced with various political, social, and economic problems. The income disparity across the population is large, the high-income class makes up only 1% of the population, the middle-income class comprises around 9%, and the remaining 90% are low-income class.
